    You're Not Bad at Content, You Need These 3 Habits

These aren't complicated systems or expensive tools. They're simple practices that let me produce more than 10 pieces of content a week without sacrificing my peace or being glued to my phone.

    Why Some Entrepreneurs Win and Others Stay Stuck (After Coaching 8,000 Business Owners)

    This episode is going to sting a little, but it needs to be said. After coaching nearly 10,000 entrepreneurs, I've noticed something: some people have everything in place (the strategy, the support, the time, the money) but still stay stuck. Meanwhile, others push through and build massive success. It's not about being lazy or not wanting it badly enough. It's about specific behaviors that quietly sabotage your progress, even when everything else looks good on paper. In this episode, I'm breaking down 6 brutal reasons why some businesses plateau while others scale, and I'm calling myself out too because I've been guilty of most of these at some point. This isn't judgment. It's pattern recognition. And if something I say makes you uncomfortable, don't shut it down. Notice what it does to you. Are you ready to audit your own patterns?

    10 Lessons That Took Me 10 Years to Learn (And Could Save You a Decade)

    I almost can't believe I'm saying this, but we're celebrating 10 years of entrepreneurship. And after a decade of building, failing, rebuilding, and scaling to multiple seven figures, I actually DON’T have everything figured out. But I do have clarity about what actually moves the needle and what doesn't. In this episode, I'm sharing 10 lessons that could save you years of spinning your wheels. We're talking about why consistency feels lonely before it pays off, why your revenue plateaus are actually decision problems, and why doing everything yourself doesn't make you strong (it makes you trapped). This episode isn't about hustle or motivation. It's about the real lessons entrepreneurship teaches you when you stick around long enough to learn them. If you're ready to build a business that serves your life instead of costing you everything, this episode is for you.

    How I Protect My Peace Like I Protect My Profits in 2026 (And You Can Too)

    If you've built your business with passion, intensity, and a work ethic that could put anyone to shame, this episode is for you. I love what I do, but I realized something that completely changed how I run my life and business: peace is not something you earn at the end of the day. It's something you plan for from the beginning. In this episode, I'm sharing the habits, boundaries, tools, and mindset shifts that help me protect my peace like I protect my profits. From planning my steps and workouts to turning off my phone at night, cutting out toxic people, and building systems that support my nervous system. I'm running a business with over 400 active clients, and I'm doing it without burning out. This isn't guru advice from someone who has it all figured out. This is real talk from someone who's actively working on this every single day. Because if it costs me my peace, it's too expensive. If you’re ready to design your life and business around peace?

    Why You're Not Doing What You Know You Should: The Action Gap (How to Stop Procrastinating)

    You know what you need to do. You've listened to the podcasts, read the books, took the courses. Yet you're still not doing it. I call this the action gap. It's the space between knowing and doing. And honestly? It's making you miserable. In this episode, I'm breaking down why willpower alone won't close this gap and what you need to do instead. I'm sharing real examples from my own business (like why I kept making stories instead of viral reels, even though I know better) and giving you the exact framework to simplify your actions so you actually follow through. Stop waiting for motivation. Start hacking your own system.  PS To help you close your action gaps, you need a week planning that works for you, your life and your business. I have an Ideal Week Planner template I use every 3 months to see if my standard planning still works for me. If you'd like access to this template + ChatGPT prompt to make your own perfect planning, you can download it here: fastforwardamy.com/weekplanner My Business Freedom Elevator™ Birthday Deal is back!  Learn the 9 essential entrepreneurial skills to go from dream to full-time income without losing your freedom.

    The Beginner’s Mindset: The Correlation Between Failing and Growing

    I almost didn't start this podcast. I postponed it twice in 2020 because I was terrified no one would listen. Or worse, that they'd listen and hate it. But since then, that scary decision has led to over 1 million downloads, four podcasts, and over 8 million in online sales. In this episode, I'm sitting in a podcast studio in LA after interviewing one of the biggest names in online marketing, and I'm thinking about how none of this would exist if I hadn't been willing to suck at something first. I'm also announcing that I changed the podcast name twice in 2023 because I've realized something crucial: we can't win without failing first. This is about why being afraid to be a beginner again is the biggest barrier to your next level of success. If you've been holding back on something because you're "too established" to start from scratch, this one's for you.
